“it deeply important to accept that we are not the masters of this place. we are her visitors. and like guests let’s enjoy this place like a garden. let us treat it with a gentle hand. so the ones after us can experience it too. let’s find our own sun. grow our own flowers. the universe delivered us with the light and the seeds. we might not hear it at times but the music is always on. it just needs to be turned louder. for as long as there is breath in our lungs—we must keep dancing.”
― Rupi Kaur, The Sun and Her Flowers

“rise said the moon and the new day came the show must go on said the sun life does not stop for anybody it drags you by the legs whether you want to move forward or not”
― Rupi Kaur, The Sun and Her Flowers

“this place makes me the kind of exhausted that has nothing to do with sleep and everything to do with the people around me - introvert”
― Rupi Kaur, The Sun and Her Flowers

“Surely,” thought I, “we mortals who dwell in pain and sorrow”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Complete Novels
